Yuto Suzuki’s Sakamoto Days manga is finally getting its hotly-anticipated anime adaptation. The official accounts went live along with the announcement, including a teaser trailer, key visual and the first cast and staff confirmations.
Tomokazu Sugita (Gintoki Sakata in Gintama) has been lined up to voice lead character Taro Sakamoto. The Sakamoto Days anime has Masaki Watanabe (the first Bartender anime) as director, with Taku Kishimoto (BLUE LOCK: Episode of Nagi) on series composition and Yo Moriyama on character designs for the TMS Entertainment production.
VIZ Media publishes the Sakamoto Days manga and describes the story like so:
Time has passed peacefully for Sakamoto since he left the underworld. He’s running a neighborhood store with his lovely wife and child and has gotten a bit…out of shape. But one day a figure from his past pays him a visit with an offer he can’t refuse: return to the assassin world or die!
